Egypt's General Prosecutor Abdel Meguid Mahmoud decided on Wednesday to re-examine the health condition of former President Hosni Mubarak to see whether he could be transferred to a prison hospital, state media reported.
Mahmoud delegated a medical committee of specialists in cardiology and intensive care to check Mubarak's condition for moving him to the Torah prison hospital.
"The committee will evaluate the hospital equipment of Torah and Mazraa prisons," said Adel Saed, spokesman of the general prosecutor.
The ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces on Wednesday denied local media reports that it intended to grant Mubarak and his family amnesty.
In a statement posted on the council's Facebook page, the council said it did not intervene in any of the legal procedures against the former regime's figures, stressing there was absolutely no truth in what was published by the media about its intention to pardon Mubarak and his family.
The council warned against rumors and reports that aimed at creating division between the people.
The denial came after Al-Shorouk newspaper reported Tuesday that Mubarak was likely to make an apology to Egyptians and his speech was to be aired via Egyptian and Arab TV channels.
The speech was also to include an offer by the former president and his wife to give up all their assets, which were not as much as media reported, in hope to get the people's amnesty.
Mubarak was forced to resign on Feb. 11 after 18 days of nationwide protests against his 30-year rule. He is now under detention in a hospital in the Red Sea resort Sharm El-Sheikh.
Mubarak's wife Suzanne Thabet, staying with her husband in the same hospital, was released Tuesday after she agreed to return all her assets, estimated to be worth 24 million Egyptian pounds ( about 4 million U.S. dollars), to the country.
The couple, who were investigated over accumulated illegal wealth on May 14, faced charges of misusing presidential influences to gain more funds which don't match their legal income.
Mubarak and his two sons were ordered on April 13 to be put under custody. They also faced accusations of killing protestors. The ex-president's detention was prolonged for 15 more days on May 10.
